Meet Bill Curtsinger, a pioneer of underwater sea photography. He has many “firsts” to his name including being the first to photograph a narwhal. 

Bill was also my neighbour growing up in Maine and his stories and photographs made a life-long impression. 

I wanted to reconnect with Bill to frame our ocean series discussion. In addition to uncovering his tales of adventure, I was eager to hear how the ocean ecology issues of the late 60s and 70s compare to our concerns now.

Welcome to Happy Planet where we speak with entrepreneurs, investors and thought leaders driving the impact economy. I am your host, Abigail Carroll. For a long time I was best known as Maine’s oyster lady; now I  work with other mission-driven start-ups  pursuing both profit and planetary health.. This work is so exciting and hope-inspiring that I decided to share the stories of some of the incredible people I’ve met along the way. Our first season will treat the ocean economy where some of the greatest environmental impacts are being forged  from business innovation.
